A capacitor of capacitance C is discharging through a resistance R. 
(A) in terms of the time constant T = RC, when will it charge be one-half of its initial value?
(B) when will the energy stored in the capacitor behalf of its initial value?
Consider an initially uncharged capacitor in an RC circuit. The resistance is 20,000 Ohms and the
capacitance is 500 x10• F. If the source potential being used to charge the capacitor is 15 V, how
long after charging begins will the power delivered to the resistor be 25 % of its maximum value?
